Simple Joy

Simple Joy

 

Joy doesn’t have to be complicated.

It doesn’t have to be

something that you can get

or have someday.

It’s easy to slide into thoughts that

make things too unattainable or difficult.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

Joy is in the simple things in life.
Imagine a perfect strawberry
dipped in chocolate or
a fresh perfectly ripened apple
picked off a tree.
Think about wading into a lake and
curling your toes in the sand.
The simple Joy in life is
a hand on your shoulder or
a shared inside joke.
Simple Joy is in a cold glass of
water after a workout
or a day in the Sun.
Simple Joy is a bowl
of chicken soup.
Simple Joy is resting your head
on a fluffy pillow as
you go to bed after a long day.
Make time to notice  and appreciate
the Simple Joys in your life today.

I think you nabbed the essence of joy with your lines. You sound like a joy-filled person.
